A regular train service links Taynuilt with Oban and also provides regular services from Taynuilt to Glasgow. Oban is the main centre of north Argyll and provides the focus both culturally and economically for Taynuilt. The town has four national supermarkets as well as several multiple retailers and many small independent specialist shops. The town is laid out around the picturesque Oban Bay which overlooks the island of Kerrera and it is from here that the Caledonian MacBrayne ferries, serving the Inner Hebridean islands, operate on a regular basis. In addition, the town has a leisure centre with swimming pool as well as a private gym and health club with a cinema and Municipal halls which provides the venue for many cultural events. North Argyll is a most picturesque and exciting area which allows a degree of tranquillity and individuality yet is within easy travelling time of Oban for most day to day services, yet is within two hours travelling time of Glasgow and its airport. The nearby glorious setting of Loch Awe, the longest inland loch in Scotland, provides excellent walking, fishing, cycling and wildlife. Kilmartin offers a pub and museum, plus visit the town of Lochgilphead, the village of Inveraray, home to the Duke and Duchess of Argyll, or take a boat trip around the islands, many with castles and graveyards to explore, in the Firth of Lorn.
